Update Of My Sly Cooper Shipping Chart Now That 2019 Is On The Verge Of Ending!

Yet another cut scene from Sly 3…

I’m guessing this was the reason that the gang’s first attempt at breaking into Doctor M’s vault didn’t go very well.

Real Talk

Props to Bentley for driving from all the way from the jungles of the Bengal region of India to Prague in Sly 2, that is an insane drive. That is crossing through 8 countries, 4 time-zones, two continents and over 8,500 km. Non-stop, it would’ve taken him almost 5 days.

And he did that all without knowing at first how to drive stick.

Like look at how far that is. I know that’s only up to Lahore but I couldn’t get a drive route that’d go into India and I assume that has to due with the nature of driving through the Indian-Pakistani border. That’s also passing through some rugged terrain and some unforgiving weather conditions too.

"REDESIGN PENELOPE" (Sly Cooper)

THERES NO NEED TO SCREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!but she also is perfect i would add just a tail :(

like this ^

replayed the sly cooper series recently and I missed these two so badly

Was Penelope serious about having ten years of martial training? Like, how old was she when she started?

​…For that matter, how old was she when she started the whole Black Baron thing? I mean, we know it was because of the age requirement so she probably wasn’t 18 yet. And it sounds like ACES has been going for probably over five years (at the bare minimum), and if Penelope and the main trio are currently about 21-ish…

Yeesh, she must’ve gotten into it really young, huh?

SlyTember Day 26

I’m gonna challenge myself by attempting to do something for every day of @felicity-the-cat ‘s SlyTember challenge

Here’s my entry for day Twenty Six (Daydream)

I know it’s late. But I drew this thing. So I figured I might as well post it

This was based on the cutscene where Sly says that seeing what Bentley&Penelope had made him want to take his relationship with Carmelita to the next level

Thieves In Time Redux Meme #5

Our four heroes after Episode 5. All Rolled Up.

The worst part? The truth comes out right after our heroine starts feeling like she's part of a family again.

Writing the end to this episode is going to be so painful... because we get to watch all that trust Penelope built up come crashing down.

Don't worry... She will redeem herself.

2024 saw me bring these four together for the events of Thieves In Time...

I'd actually been working on it for 10+ years, but 2024 was when I finally decided to turn that story into a full length fanfiction.

hi! I have a question, how do I write the movements of a ballerina? I'm writing a novel and now I'm at the part where my protagonist is dancing ballet for an audience in the theater. Could you help me with how to write her movements? I'm in doubt about how to write this

Arabesque: A pose in which the dancer stands on one leg—either straight or demi-plié, and either flat-footed or en pointe—while extending the other leg straight behind at a right angle. The shoulders are square with the arms held to create a long line from fingertips to toes.

Pas de deux: A “dance for two,” or duet, in classical ballet.

Petit saut: A small jump.

Pirouette: A complete turn of the body on one foot, either turning inward or outward, with the body centered over the supporting leg, the arms propelling the turn but remaining stationary during the turn, and the eyes “spotting” a fixed point while the head quickly turns.

Promenade: A slow pivot of the body while standing on one leg.

Rèvèrence: “Bow”. Traditional port-de-bras and port-de-corps showing respect and gratitude to the ballet master or audience.

Internal conflict writing ideas

Not everything has to be fight scenes

—Losing something of emotional value and remembering its history and why it’s important to the character

—Reliving a traumatic event

—Running into an old friend who’s either completely changed since they’ve last seen each other or far too similar, leaving the character to wonder about how they’ve matured and grown compared to this other person

—Internally deciding if they should voice a fear or concern to the group, even if they might look silly or ridiculous doing so

—Friends vs family in terms of choosing who to follow and listen too

—Feeling unqualified to work on a project or be apart of the adventure

—Romantic feelings for someone they shouldn’t and dealing with how they should proceed internally. (THIS MEANS RIVALS OR FORBIDDEN ROMANCE. NOT ANYTHING ILLEGAL!!!)

—Thinking about mortality and death after being reminded of an late friend/family passing

—Being less talented at something years later when they used to be the best in that field

—Finding an old photo that carries much more emotional significance now than it did X years ago.
